I think of a number subtract three then multiply by four

According to the given statement the expression will be "4x-12".

Let,

When "3" is subtracted from the number "x", we get

→

and,

When "x-3" is multiply by "4", we get

→

After solving the brackets, we get    

→

Thus the answer above is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this

We have

Let the number think of b x

Three subtracted from the number will be

x-3

Then multiply by 4

4(x-3)

Open d brackets

4x-12

x = 17

step-by-step explanation:

in the given figure, two triangles are inscribed in a circle where ∠bae ≅ ∠dae which makes the side be and de equal so we can write it as:

3x - 24 = x + 10

solving this equation for x to get:

3x - x = 10 + 24

2x = 34

x = 34/2

x = 17

therefore, the value of x = 17.

because linear equations are a lot simpler than quadratics equations, and linear equations formula is a lot easier to memorize. that's why i think they're harder.
